222 S Main Street - 222 South Main, Salt Lake City, UT

Presenting 222 South Main, Salt Lake City’s most exclusive office development by Hamilton Partners. Offering an exceptional downtown location, landmark quality and twentyfirst century vision, 222 South Main has been designed by the internationally renowned architectural firm Skidmore, Owings & Merrill LLP. The building is a striking example of the "SOM way", in which the building structure naturally informs its exterior profile and appearance, just as the Sears Tower or the Lever House (both SOM designs) are landmarks in their respective communities. This tall and slender tower will be an elegant icon on the City’s skyline with commanding views of the nearby mountains and Salt Lake City’s dynamic downtown.

The tower features over 458,000 g.s.f. of office area, typical office floors of 22,000 s.f. each and 9,000 r.s.f. of street-level retail space. Forty foot lease depths and nine foot ceilings are typical. Based on a five foot planning module, the building structural grid provides column-free floor spans, allowing for efficient and flexible space planning. The spacious, 14 foot 9 inch height entry lobby and adjoining street-front retail create a lively and inviting pedestrian environment. Hotels, fine restaurants and shopping are all within easy walking distance.

222 South Main is an intelligent building, with energy conserving and fully automated HVAC systems. Fiber optic capability is provided on all office floors. Voice/data communication and life safety/security systems are state-of-the-art and customizable. The building features high transparency, low reflectivity exterior glazing, and is seismically engineered for structural safety and efficiency. Adjoining parking in a nine level structure will be available to tenants and visitors. Additional parking is available within a short walking distance. A TRAX light rail station is located directly in front of the building.

222 South Main is located in the center of Salt Lake City's business, financial and judicial districts with direct access to the city's new and expanding lightrail
corridor and immediate access to the freeway system. Salt Lake City International Airport is only minutes away from downtown. Utah is known for its skiing, "the greatest snow on earth" and was the site of the 2002 Winter Olympics. Seven ski resorts are located within 40-minutes travel from the airport and Utah's five national parks are just a short drive away, making 222 a truly ideal location.

Salt Lake City is known as the “Crossroads of the West,” and is bisected by Interstates 15 and 80. The city itself is undergoing a downtown renaissance in addition to 222 South Main. Just north of the Main site, the former Crossroads and ZCMI malls are being demolished to make way for the City Creek Center, a mixed use development, and part of Salt Lake’s “Downtown Rising” development initiative. Commuter rail will provide high speed transportation along the Wasatch Front.
